r Yu lYtt' ««ft)) KANSAS STATE I THIS IS Here's a glance at one of the places that keeps alive the Amer- ican way. May its existence be long and its teachings forever. Pag© 6 RUSS HALL Page 7 MUSIC HALL ► PORTER LIBRARY HORACE MANN TRAINING SCHOOL At Pitt were doing our part— We're working with hand and heart; We're training to carry out our obligation, We perceive before us our inspiration. In guiding silvery wings across the sky We take our turn at learning how to fly; 'Neath azure heavens in peace we train, Preparing for life when world peace we gain. As youth we are planning with determination, For this is our world and America our nation. May our flag wave over us—symbol of the free, May we as youths ever live in this land of liberty. —DORIS GANT. Page 12 Page 13 In all fields of study they are furthering their knowledge. Their minds and bodies will pro- vide tools that they will use in chiseling out the kind of world they'd choose. Like every soldier they have a purpose in mind and through interest and application it will be realized.

Notice that lively stride, that friendly expression on his face, and that business-like man- ner. He's everyones friend and you can't pass him in a building or on the campus without receiving a cheerful greeting and a conversation showing interest in the individual's work. Not only do President Hughes' interests thoroughly coincide with the ideals of this school but his family likewise fits in , taking a part in all school activities. This school is indeed honored by such a grand directing power. On his shoulders rest the future of this college and it is readily agreed by all of the faculty and all of the students that no better person than Rees H. Hughes could be more capably entrusted with such a task. Page 18 GOV. SCHOEPPEL In a larger sense, the schools of Kansas and America must be reorganized to meet all of the changed conditions which will follow the war. They must get in step with the times and march at the head of America's great parade into the years ahead. Leadership in world affairs, leadership in the government of our own state and nation, and leadership in every worthwhile pursuit which will attract our men and women of tomorrow, will depend largely upon our schools.

BOARD OF REGENTS The State Beard of Regents is composed of men and women outstanding in the field of education and leaders in many activities in the business and professional world in the State of Kansas. It is through this board's effort that many of ihe educational opportunities of today are offered. Their chief interest is to build a better and higher type of education. Page 29 iS$$3 Doc Dee as he is familiarly called by the students is Dean of the college. He has a record as having given more years of serv- ice to this institution than any other member of the faculty. His work on numerous committees is a very valuable and helpful con- tribution to the college. DR. O. P. DELLINGER Dean of the College She is the capable secretary to the President of the college and is the individual that greets you when you go to see Prexy. Her pleasant smile and friendly manner are a definite asset to this school. Page 21 MRS. MABEL K. STRYKER J. U. MASSEY Is registrar of the college and has one of the most important positions in the school. Into his office gees the difficult handling of all student records and after he gets them it is certain that they can never, never be changed. MISS BELLE PROVOHSE The valuable and efficient service which the general office renders is an important cog in the machinery of this institution. This credit goes to the financial secretary. Her energy and cooperation has contributed much to the welfare of this school. MISS JENNIE C. WALKER Is the Dean of Women and excels in college activities and associations which count for efficiency among women. She has a large field of acquaintances being general director of Willard Hall. She also serves as a guide to floundering freshman in their awkward stages. GEORGE D. SMALL Is Dean of Men and takes a direct interest in the activities of every man enrolled in the college. This year he found his task increased by the demands of the armed services. He aided and directed each boy and will long be remembered by them. Page 22 FACULTY Mary Lee Hagemann Russell B.

It has been capably directed this year by the Student Council President Art Prince. Under his leadership the representatives from the other classes plan and carry on school activities. J. O. Biggs and Jack Crews represent the Freshman Class; Bill Waltz and Doris Gant represent the Sophomore Class; Martha Ruth Howard and Ray Lance represent the Junior Class; Gene McClarrinon and Lee Whiteman rep- resent the Senior Class; Patsy Jill Pumphrey, Earl Perry, and James Marchbanks represent the student body at large. Page 27 ART PRINCE Student Council In Action This year the Student Council has had to reverse its program to meet the changing per- iod of war time. Concentration was placed on important victory programs and social activities were placed in the background. They sponsored continuous war bond drives, buying twenty jeeps for the Army; headed student Red Cross activities; aided all other types of drives for the benefit of the War Emergency. A survey of one-hundred and fifty schools was made to determine the proper type of program to follow to aid the students. Social activities were far from forgotten with emphasis placed on Ladies' Knight, Sun- rise dances, Mid-Week dances, the Honor Hop, Nickelodeon dances, and assembly programs. Patsy Jill Pumphrey was elected by the group as Vice-president with Doris Gant and Ray Lance holding the offices of Secretary and Treasurer, respectively. Miss Lula McPherson served as sponsor of the Student Council. Page 28 Page 29 SENIOR CLASS GENE McCLARRINON President SOPHOMORE CLASS BILL WALTZ President FRESHMAN CLASS J. O.

Page 71 PEP Pep during war time is hard to promote, but the pep club, under the leadership of ihe president, Patsy Jill Pumphrey, has done a fine job in building morale on the campus this year. Homecoming was the first big event of the year. A huge bonfire and parade, complete with floats, a march- ing band, and a snake dance helped to make it a success. The pep club sponsored several sunrise dances in honor of the teams. They also sold programs at the games and Patsy Jill Pumphrey—President Jim Holland—Vice-president Doris Gant—Treasurer Pat Leon—Secretary CLUB pop at the parties. Several of the outstanding college chapels were planned by the pep club. All members of the club wear crimson sweaters with gold Gorilla emblems on the front. Membership is deter- mined by peppy personalities and leadership on the cam- pus. Spirit and enthusiasm was at its height under the experienced cheerleaders Betty Pesek, Ruth Jean Smith, Jim Millington, and Bud Prideaux, Much credit should also be given to the sponsors Miss Virginia McAllister and Mr. Guffey.

The phone is busy most of the time, too, especially since there are some 90 women waiting to use it. A typical day in the dorm runs rather like a steamer caught between a typhoon and a hurricane. Along about five a. m. the alarm clocks begin going oft to herald the approach of another day. The girls who just couldn't pass up that date with the dream man last night have to get up at five and flog weary and sleep-ridden brains to work. The vast majority rise and shine at seven. Doors bang, water runs and drips and girls chatter. Things are comparatively quiet until the mail comes at ten. Everyone dashes in to see if the folks at home report or the grand passion from home has written his daily letter. Life assumes a halfway even course with a minor eruption at noon until after classes are over and the evening begins. Fourth floor can't under- stand why every one else on the floors below must take a shower at the same time. The buzzer rings incessantly, and each damsel sits and holds her breath, sure that this is the time that it's for her. People go in and out all the time and the lights go out at ten. In the merciful darkness, parting becomes such sweet sorrow and no one wants to be the first one to go in. Finally the door is locked and the dorm settles itself with a sigh to wait for the next day's rush to begin. Page 79 Flora Mae Duncan, Dorothy Gafhman, Imagene Troop, Dale Wemble, Philip Norman.

Nov. 14 Nov. 21 'Pittsburg—13 Emporia State—0. Conference Games The 1942 edition of the Gorilla football team took up where the 1941 squad had left off. The '41 team, which had won Pitt its first undisputed CIC championship, had scored consecutive victories over Southwestern, Augustana, and Emporia State to end its season, and the '42 squad continued to win, chalking up victories over Warrensburg, Springfield, and Washburn before the winning streak was shattered by a strong Rockhurst eleven. Immediately alter the defeat another streak was started with the team this time running over Southwestern, St. Benedict's, Fort Hays, and Emporia State, finishing the season with a record of seven victories and a single defeat, one of the best gridiron records in the history of KSTC. In the Central Conference the Gorillas. were undefeated, going through their entire schedule of five games with only one touchdown being scored against them, that by Fort Hays. When practice started, coaches Charlie Morgan and Prentice Gudgen had only eight lettermen and nine squadmen returning for duty. Listed among the lettermen were linemen Melvin Jones and Eugene Ridenour, regular ends on the '41 team, Andy Bertuzzi, John Hottenstein, Adolph Spigarelli, Waldon McCoy, and Richard Salb. The only returning back was Don German. Squad- men returning were A. M. Brim, Frank Emery, Joe Lee, Jim Marchbanks, Clyde Pelton, Bob Sears, Dale Conner, LeRoy Schuette and Glenn Tolle. From this group were to spring some of the brightest stars ever to shine in Pittsburg records. Such names as Tolle, Schuette, Brim, and Sears became regular household words in the vocabulary of the College students. As the season started there was a scarcity of experienced backs and it looked as though the burden of winning games would be thrown on the Gorilla line, but as the season progressed both the backs and the line developed beyond the wildest dreams of even the most ardent Pitt fans, the line re- sembling a solid block of granite in allowing only 32 points to be scored on it in the entire season of eight games. The backfield developed just as rapidly and rolled up 115 points for the season. Stars were constantly being developed as Harold Howey and Ed Williams, first string backs, left school to join the GLENN TOLLE RAYMOND ORR GAYLORD SIMPSON LEROY SCHUETTE WILBUR HUMPHRIES Page 90 of 7-0. The score came late in the last period when Pitt was forced to punt from deep in their own territory. The kick carried out to the 45 where Mitchell started on a slashing drive that carried him all the way to the Pitt five. On the first play the Gorilla line showed its mettle by shoving the Hawks back to the 12, but on the next try Bob Stack hit Mitchell with a perfect shovel pass good for the touchdown and the game. After the Rockhurst defeat the Teachers began to concentrate on the winning of a second straight CIC championship, playing Southwestern, St. Benedict's, Fort Hays, and Emporia State in consecutive games. The Southwestern game, billed as a battle of quarterbacks, Schuette vs. Vann, lost some of its glamour when Vann was injured and forced to miss the game. However, Schuette's star was not dimmed in the least as he guided his team to a 13-0 win. Glenn Tolle stole the spotlight though, as, playing in his second game since replacing Howey, he scored both of the Gorilla touch- downs. Then came the most outstanding game played by the Gorillas all season. Especially was the line play sensational. The game was the homecoming tussle with St. Benedict's on October 31. The Gorillas won the game by the narrowest of margins, 6-0, when Tolle took the opening kickoff on his five yard line and threaded his way to the 48. Humphries then went to the Raven 47, Schuette smashed to the 29, Humphries got to the 12, German plunged to the 10, and then Tolle swept around end for the only score of the game. Then started one of the most remarkable exhibitions of fighting heart and spirit ever seen on Brandenburg field. The Pitt line, with two regulars, Salb and Jones, out with injuries, fought for the next 58 minutes, giving everything they had time and time again to keep the Ravens and Irv Comp from crossing the goal. Six times during those tense minutes the Ravens drove inside the Pitt 10 yard line and six times that line rose in cm almost superhuman effort to stave off what seemed to be inevitable. The climax came in the fourth quarter when Comp, big 200 pound power driving fullback worked the ball to the Pitt RICHARD SALB BOB SEARS JOHN HOTTENSTEIN JIM MARCHBANKS Page 92 l six-inch line, then took three smashing drives at the Pitt forward wall and when he had finished the ball was still on the six-inch line. Again with only seconds left and with the ball on the Pitt 11 Comp brought into action the Ravens deadly passing attack but his two desperate last chance tosses failed to connect and the Gorillas had won the game. The line that made itself a name in Pitt football history that afternoon read Bertuzzi and Ridenour at ends, McCoy and Brim at tackles, Sears and Spigarelli at guards, and Grim at center. Bertuzzi and Grim were playing their first full game, and they proved to be the stars. Bertuzzi simply would not allow his end to be rounded, and Grim was the boy that Comp made his three futile attempts to crack. With the Ravens disposed of the Gorillas had little trouble in going on to score 13-6 and 13-0 wins over Fort Hays and Emporia State, thus taking their second CIC championship in two years. Tolle and Humphries were the scorers in the Hays game with Ridenour and Schuette credited with the points in the final game. During the last two seasons the Gorillas have built some very enviable records. They have won eight straight games on their home field starting with Iowa State Teachers and running through Southwestern, Augustana, Emporia State, Warrensburg, Springfield, St. Benedict's, and Fort Hays. Also the Gor- illas have won seven straight conference victories, the last loss being to St. Benedict's, November 1, 1941. Since then victories have been scored over Southwestern twice, Emporia State twice, Washburn, St. Benedict's and Fort Hays. Several of the members of the '42 team were selected for places on the AP all conference squad. Ridenour, McCoy and Schuette were plcaed on the first team, Bertuzzi, Brim, Sears, Spigarelli, and Salb made the second squad, and Jones, Tolle, German, and Humphries all received honorable mention. —Arnold McClure. JOHN HALFHILL Page 93 WALDON McCOY A. M. BRIM JACK GRIM BILL WALTZ HOWARD MARTIN RAY LANCE DALE CONNER JIM HAMILTON JACK BROADHURST Even before starting the 1942-43 basketball season, the first to be carried on under strict wartime conditions, Pittsburg was extremely conscious of the part the war was to play. Coach John Lance was now ready to begin shaping his team in an effort to win a third consecutive CtC championship How- ever, the situation did nol look too bright. The only lettermen returning were Jim Hamilton, Ray Lance, Jack Broadhurst. and Bill Waltz, supplemented by squadme;1. Dale Conner and Jim Sparks. These veterans were augmented by several promising freshman candidates including Howard Martin, all-state class A center from Fredonia; Wilbur Humphries, Cedar Vale; Joey Cornelia, Frontenac; Levi Garrett. Claremore, Okla.; Cal Holden, Quapaw, Okla,; and Sherman Lollar, Fayetteville, Ark. In the season's opening game Dec. 7, the team that Lance sent on the floor was probably the youngest outfit ever to represent KSTC. There was nol a senior on the squad, only Ihree juniors, a sophomore, and a freshman. It was also one of the smallest squads physically having only three boys who topped the six foot mark, with Waltz, at six-two, being the tallest man. The team read Hamilton and Marlin at forwards, Waltz at center, and Lance and Conner at guards. In the game against Crowder, the Gorillas won the game 58-27, It was Hamilton who led the scoring, an even! which was to become a habit as the season progressed, as he hit seven field goals and a free throw for 15 points. Other high scorers for Pitt were Lance and Martin with nine points each. In a game played at Fayetteville, Ark., the Gorillas went down to their first defeat as a tall Razorback team played over their heads and won 57-46. In their last game before playing in the annual Oklahoma City tournament, the Gorillas invaded the army post at Neosho and managed to squeeze by a stubborn Crowder five 40-38. Page 94 DON O'MALLEY ANDY BERTUZZI LELAND PARSONS WILBUR HUMPHRIES SHERMAN LOLLAR JOEY CORNELLA JACK CLOGSTON Pitt left for Oklahoma City Dec. 27 in their attempt to regain the championship won in 1940 and lost to West Texas in 1941. Pairings threw them against the Rice Owls in a first round game. Rice was one of the four seeded teams in the tourney and later proved to have one of the finest teams in the southwest. Although definitely the underdogs, Pitt rocketed off to a spine tingling 40-39 win over Rice as they successfully stopped a des- perate last minute rally by the Owls. Pitt advanced into the second round to meet Maryville, an earlier winner over South western. In the Maryville game the team seemed to have lost all sense of accuracy and lost 38-28. Height again was the deciding factor and the Bears gradually began to draw away to victory. On Jan. 1 the Gorillas returned home but got off to a bad start for the new year as Arkansas U. defeated them for the second time of the season, this time by a close score of 43-38. For one of the few times of the season, Hamilton was not the leading scorer. Waltz and Martin shared the honor with eight points each. On Jan. 4 the Gorillas opened their defense of the CtC crown against a strong Fort Hays team. The Tigers proved to be much too strong for Pitt to handle, and the score ended 53-38, Hays. Hamilton went on one of his highest scoring sprees of the season as he racked up 23 points. Playing their sixth home game of the season on Jan, 7, the team broke their three game losing streak and gained a .500 rating in the CIC when they defeated St. Benedict's 51-34. Hamilton, Martin, and Broadhurst all shared in scoring honors as they equally divided 30 points. On the 14th and 15th of January, the Gorillas made one of their two conference road trips, playing Emporia and Southwestern. The game at Emporia went to Pitt 43-36 with Lance bearing the offensive brunt with 14 points. At Southwestern it was another story, the Gorillas going down 48-36. Hamilton again returned to farm and bucketed 15 points. The loss to the Moundbuilders made Pitt's chances of repeating in the CIC seem very slim as Iheir league record now read two wins against two losses with Southwestern as yet undefeated. Jan. 28 the Gorillas suffered an unexpected defeat when a tough Springfield team nosed them out 36-31. Meeting the Bears in a return game one week later Pitt avenged the earlier defeal by winning 58-39, Martin and Hamilton both collecting 16 points. In February Pitt relumed to the conference wars with an overwhelming 72-31 victory over Washburn oJ Topeka. Hamilton went on his biggest spree so far as he hit for 27 points. On Feb, 11. the team left on a trip to play Si. Benedict's at Atchison, Feb, 12, Washburn at Topeka, Feb. 13, and Fort Hays at Hays, Feb, 15. The firs! two games ended in victories for Pitt 51-32 and 35-25, and hopes for another championship begin to rise. In lh© St. Benedict's game Hamilton broke all scoring records for Jhe season as he scored 29 points. Then on Monday night, after traveling all night and arriving in Hays at 3:00 o'clock that morning, the Gorillas lost to the Tigers in one of the highest scoring games in the history of the conference, 80-67. The defeat eliminated the team from further championship consideration, this being their third defeat while the leader still had an unblemished record. Games on Feb. 18 and 22 wound up the season. Emporia was no problem and yielded 62-35. Then came the biggest game of the year, the meeting with the league leading Moundbuilders. Before the largest and wildest crowd of the year, the Gorillas beat Southwestern in a hair raising game 49-33. The win enabled Pilt to end the season in a second place tie with Fort Hays, both winning seven and losing three. The season's record showed 11 victories against seven losses. Jim Hamilton was the only member of the Pittsburg usam to be selected on the first AP all-conference team with Ray Lance being placed on the second team. Page 95 —Arnold McClure. TRACK After swinging off to a successful start, Pitts- burg's 1942 track season ended in a disappoint- ing glow. The Gorillas after winning two dual meets from their old rivals, the Emporia State Hornets, and placing high in events at the Butler Relays, Kansas Relays, and Drake Re- lays, lost the conference meet to Emporia by a close score of 65 Vi to 58%. At the opening of the season Coach Doc” Weede had five lettermen reporting back to him: Walt Revell, star hurdler, Don Patrick and Jack Bellman, distance runners, Karl Geissmann, pole vault, and Bill Trimmell, high jump. There was also a good turnout of other hopefuls as Bob Friggeri, Jim Sparks, John Stark, and Glenn Tolle reporting for the dashes, Leslie Dixon, aane Slaughter, and Roy Garrison came out .or the distance races, and Ray and John Lance and Edward Schufelt for the hurdles. Men out for the field events were Dale Conner, Nate Moore, Kenneth Ester, John Morgan, Guy Mitchell, Andy Bertuzzi, Harry Zimmerman, Marvin Ryden, and Lawrence Behrends. On March 14, Weede and five selected men were in Indianapolis for their first meet of the year, the Butler Relays. The five man team made up of Bellman, Patrick, Friggeri, Slaughter, and Dixon finished fourth in the dis- tance medley relay and was also entered in the two mile relay. The first outdoor competition for the team was the duel meet with the Hornets at Emporia on April 11. The team was now beginning to round into shape and showed real form as they won the meet handily, taking four of the seven track events and four of the six field contests. First were scored in the two mile relay, time 8:55.1, the 440 yard relay, 46.5, the dis- tance medley relay, 11:19, the 880 yard relay, 1:36.5, the shot put, high jump, pole vault and discus. After the dual meet, the Gorillas attended the Kansas Relays on April 18. Here a team composed of Slaughter, Patrick, Dixon and Bellman won the two mile relay, time 8:31.9. Too, the team finished third in the distance medley relay and fourth in the mile relay. Next in line were the Drake Relays held in Des Moines annually on April 21 and 22. The team composed of six men, Slaughter, Revell, Friggeri, Dixon, Patrick, and Bellman was entered in three events, the two-mile relay, the one-mile relay, and the sprint medley relay. In the two-mile they finished fourth, in the one- mile third, and in the sprint second. Prairie View, Texas, won the last event and in so doing set a new record, breaking the Relay record set by Pittsburg the year before. Returning home Pitt held the first 1942 meet on their own track as they engaged Emporia in another dual meet May 2. This time it was a battle as the Gorillas won by a score of 75- 69. Walt Revell was the star of the meet col- lecting 11 Vi points as he took firsts in the high and low hurdles and anchored the winning mile relay team. Then came the conference meet held in Pittsburg May 9. Pitt in losing this meet did so for only the second time in the 14 year history of the CIC. The day before the meet Walt Revell, who was being heavily counted on to take firsts in the high and low hurdles, the 100 yard dash, and anchor at least one of the relay teams, a feat which would have ac- counted for over 16 points, pulled a muscle in his leg, the injury proving serious enough to keep him from competing in the meet. Doc” Weede tried every trick he knew to take up the slack left by Revell's iniury, and the whole squad fought its heart out, but it just wasn't quite enough. Emporia took seven firsts to Pitt's four, the Gorillas scoring in the 440 yard dash, won by Dixon in .52, the mile-relay (Friggeri, Slaughter, Dixon, and Bellman'), the javlin, won by Conner with a toss of 180 3”, and the shot won by Ryden with a heave of 41', 10”. Bellman captured second in the 440, and the 880, Slaughter took the runner up spot in the mile run, Friggeri tied for second in the 100 yard dash, John Lance was second in the broad jump, and Geissmann was third in the pole vault. Pitt made a clean sweep of the shot with Bertuzzi and Behrands finishing be- hind Ryden. Lettermen for the year were Duane Slaugh- ter, Donald Patrick, Leslie Dixon, Jack Bellman, Robert Friggeri, Ray Lance, Karl Geissmann, John Lance, Marvin Ryden, Andy Bertuzzi, Lawrence Behrends, William Trimmell, Dale Conner, and Walt Revell. —Arnold McClure. Page 96 MUSIC DEPARTMENT A week which is looked forward to by each music student is the Annual Spring Music Festival Week. One of the outstanding events is the presentation of the opera. The above pictures were taken from the presentation of Von Flotow's opera Martha.'' The solo roles were sung by professional artists supported by the college chorus and orchestra. The role of Martha was sung by Jeanne Madden; Julia, Lavon Holden; Plunkett Herbert Gould; Lionel, Claude Newcomb; Sir Tristam, Otis Mumaw Page 97 THE FESTIVAL ORCHESTRA The climax of the Music Festival Week is the presentation of Handel's Messiah ' which is one of the most widely sung of all oratories. This year will mark the 29th performance of this oratorio by the college orchestra and chorus. An interesting fact is that the music was composed in seventeen days.

At least one more concert is planned besides this. In spite of the small numbers participating this year, the caliber of each individual member was such as to make possible a splendid playing organ- ization. On concerts the group played a well-rounded program picked for the specific purpose of bringing enjoyment to all its hearers, whatever their taste. Page 99 THIRD ROW—Left to right: Marilyn Kuhn.

THE 1942-43 COLLEGIO The 21st anniversary of the official mouthpiece of KSTC, The Collegio has seen the publishing of one of the best College newspapers in the state. The new faculty advisor. Clay DeFord and the cap- able editor, Phoebe Jacoby have given the paper a cer- tain something that has really made news. Two new policies were successfully initiated this year. Instead of Friday the paper was published on Wednesday morning. The other was the selection of one editor to edit the paper for the whole year instead of every nine weeks. Leroy Brewing ton supervised the printing of the Col- legio, Merle Mason and Margaret Agnes Naylor were the business managers. Page 102 EDITOR PHOEBE JACOBY THE 1943 KANZA Heaven only knows how it made it, but here it is. Hope that along with your enjoyment you'll realize the obstacles that had to be overcome before it could be presented to you. Shortage of film, scarcity of printers, and demands of the armed services all played a part. Harvey Lanier was the Editor and to his credit goes the cover, the arrangement of pictures, and all foundational material. About the first of March when Harvey was called, his duties were assumed by Doris Gant. From her hands the book went to the printers. M. D. Mason was the Business Manager but his place was ably filled by Bud Prideaux and next by Dale Womble. The photo- grapher was Lowell Van Tassel and the sports section was written by Arnold McClure. To all of these go the thanks for this book so if you like it give them the credit and if you don't like it give them the credit anyway. Thanking all for your cooperation— So long till next year, THE EDITOR.

The tyranny of the fall term of 1926 consisted of upper classmen stopping the freshmen and paddling them. Soon six boys segregated them- selves and made plans for organ- izing a fraternity. On January 20, 1927, the fraternity committee oE the college passed on the constituiion and by-laws. A state charter was granted on April 14, 3927. The sponsors of the fraternity are Miss Mary Lee Hagemann, Dr. Paul Murphy, Dr. Samuel Pease, Professor H. E. Binford. Page 120 KAPPA DELTA KAPPA LEE WHITEMAN DANA LEMLER BUD PRIDEAUX M. D.

Notice the poor pledges—don't you envy them? Anyway it's all in fun and just wait till next year and they'll be getting their revenge. With a combination of intellectual and social talents the sororities and frats play a large part in the life on our campus. Page 126 Pag© 127 CAMPUS . O . Sou- Sil' All our lives we've been told to hitch our wagons to a star, and at last our dreams are being realized. We're entering college, not just any col- lege, but Kansas State Teacher's College. The first day brings its own particular problem, enrollment, which is no laughing matter. It means waiting in line for hours, conferences with instructors, whose ideas are not always yours, and the payment of your tuition and other fees. However, it's fun to rub shoulders with fellow sufferers and to see a few acquaintances with whom you can exchange wor- ries. Of course, one glimpses some wise and su- perior looking creatures, the upper classmen, to whom this routine is no novelty but something to finish as quickly and as advantageously as possible. Scene two is a happier one. The out-of-town students find their new homes satisfactory. Some seem to be enjoying themselves immensely. Note the Joe E. Brown expression on our old friend, Earl Perry. Anyone who has attended the college very long knows Earl. He takes an active part in the assembly programs, is executive secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association, is a member of Theta Alpha Phi, and was an inspiring leader in the jeep drive this spring. As football season gets off to a good start, the cheerleaders are chosen for the year. The contest- ants are carefully judged because the winners play a vital part in the athletic program of the school. The personality, pep, and good sportsmanship of R. J, Smith, Betty Pesek, Bud Prideaux, and Jim Millington made them able leaders for 1942-1943, After a few weeks of school, our wide-eyed freshman has become acclimatized to college life. He no longer sits on the side line but prefers an active part. Some of the events of his first year will always be remembered. Among the most vivid of these will probably be the beautiful torch parade around the oval, his initiation. Never will he be able to forget the college games, full of color, school spirit, and fun; some of the special programs; or the exams. Page 128 LIFE As time goes by, and the instructors get more exacting, one sees students dashing madly across the campus, and up and down stairs, fearful of being late. Some with worried brows hasten over to Horace Mann, where they try to impart some of their knowledge to the younger set. Practice teach- ing, Mary Kay Boner tells us, is a lively and inter- esting experience. Here we see a man well-known to all of us. President Hughes is a regular fellow. He not only has the dignity and ability in keeping with his posi- tion, but also sympathy and understanding for the students problems and ambitions. There are many fine sororities, fraternities, and social organizations at K. S. T. C. One of them, Sigma Alpha Iota, a national music sorority, is out- standing for its fine musical programs. They gave a well-remembered assembly program at Christmas time. Brandenburg Field has been brightened by the color, beauty, and twirling artistry of our three majorettes—Veda Schauffler, Dorothy Jo Bernhardt, and Martha Eidson. The drum major, Jack Butler, has given many fancy exhibitions to the delight of the spectators. Oscar Stover, band director, does much to advance pep and enthusiasm at the college games. Never to be forgotten! The Phi Sig beauties versus the Sig Tau glamour girls staged a hilarious basketball game during the intermission of a regular L scheduled play-off. Rules and regulations were over- looked, and many of these pledges were disabled u some time. Pag© 129 The Dorm girls enjoy a melon feed in the base- ment of Willard Hall, and the only man permitted to enter this forbidden realm after hours was Dowell Van Tassel, Kanza photographer. Ah, we learn that DeFord excels not only in journalism but is a star ping pong player as well. Notice his well-balanced position. Here you see students enjoying music furnished by the Blackfriars. It is one of the regular all-school parties of the year. A successful one ended our bond and stamp sales drive in April. Yes, sir, K. S. T. C. far exceeded its set goal. Sales totaled $17,136.45, enough to buy twenty jeeps. Mid-week dances and jeeprides were sponsored by the Student Council to encourage prospective buyers. Candidates for Jeep Queen were furnished by the various sororities and Willard Hall. Betty Cauble, Sigma Sigma Sigma, was crowned queen, with Nancy Dunham, Alpha Sigma Alpha, placing second, and Betty Sternitzke from Willard Hall, third. Murder. she cries. Yes, it's an unfortunate pledge at the Alpha House during Hell (pardon) Courtesy Week. Nevertheless, it's one of those embarrassing moments not soon forgotten by actives- to-be. The cruel creatures, serving the healthful dose of mineral oil are Shirley Ainsworth, Sammy Lou Heaton, and Marie Hembree. Those two students are jigging a mean jag, or cutting a rare rug, or really getting hep, or strictly on the beat, don't you think? Dale Womble is in the groove, a solid sender, cooking with gas, and swimming up stream. Nuff said? Say, it might be just the hinge your gait needs. As Doris Gant and Fred Bumgarner stroll up the campus steps the sun appears to be setting, and another school day ending. So until next year brings new faces and renewed activity, may happy mem- ories be yours as time goes by. —PATTY BARKELL. Page 130 McFarland flying service PIione 3000 U. S.
